Vermont Business Magazine TIME has recognized Sunrun CEO Mary Powell for her impactful climate leadership, advancing residential clean energy adoption to reduce fossil fuel usage and strengthen the nation’s energy grid. Powell previously was the CEO of Green Mountain Power, based in Colchester, Vermont.
During Powell’s three-year tenure at Sunrun, the company has rapidly grown its impact, adding over 400,000 new customers and achieving a nearly 500% increase in battery installations with 112,000 new storage customers. This growth has contributed to generating approximately 21 billion kilowatt-hours of solar energy, helping to enable the avoidance of nearly 10 million metric tons of carbon emissions from entering the atmosphere.

I am so proud of the Sunrun team’s work to accelerate the customer-led revolution to a more affordable, resilient, and energy independent future for Americans.
